Hist​​​ory

In 2000, the County of Orange, the City of Santa Ana, the Rancho Santiago Community College District, and the Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration (EDA), collaborated to initiate the development of the Digital Media Center.

The digital media industry had been identified by the county and EDA as a priority for local business development.
At the same time, the City of Santa Ana was developing the new Bristol Corridor as a complement to the downtown Artists’ Village and the near-by location of the county’s central offices. The City donated an acre of land to Rancho Santiago Community College District for the purpose of hosting the Digital Media Center.
